We've heard a lot about air travel lately, and most of it hasn't been good. In the last two months, the news has been filled with horror story after horror story about flying.

From the crashes in Washington, D.C., and Philadelphia to the issues down in Arizona, traveling by air has gotten a bad rap lately, so it's nice to have some positive news to report—and even better that it's here in Montana.

Montana is home to multiple airports, both regional and international. From Billings to Missoula, there are several options for Montanans to travel via plane and one of those options is receiving national recognition.

Which Montana airport was named the safest in America for baggage claim?

According to Air Advisor the safest airport in America for baggage claim safety is the Helena Regional Airport. The Helena Airport wasn't the only location in our region to receive praise. The airport in Casper, Wyoming was ranked 2nd.

I'll be honest, I've never had an issue with flying and luggage. Having said that, 90 percent of the time, I've done the whole carry-on thing. The truth is, I can't even begin to think of how frustrating it would be to lose your luggage. Especially in a situation where you're trying to enjoy yourself and relax a little.
